Changes at Anglian Radio

Comments

Very sleepy and repetitive music today. I tuned in to see if anything has changed the music is All love songs and laid back. Rob chandlers jingle advertising his breaks at show was also laid back. I have never heard Rob chandler advertise hus show in such a mellow way. He didn't sound right lol. To be fair he don't speak much either now lol.

Yeah I've heard his now breakfast show advert. He doesn't say any station IDs either. So maybe a breeze station in April I wonder. Maybe the music on the anglian breakfast show will be identical to the breeze soon.

Maybe the upcoming 'favourite 500' will trigger the breeze playlist

More likely that the 'Fav 500' will act as a stunting period and by the time they reach #1 the rebrand and transition to The Breeze will have been carried out. It's an easy method of doing it while all the Breeze audio etc is loaded and websites and social media are rebranded.

The Breeze won't be coming until Town 102 situation is settled. No news of that outcome just yet.

Haven't listened for a week tuned in at 8am today and they played Tiffany I think we're alone now. How bad can Celador let this get?

How ironic, haven't listened for ages, switched on in the car today just after 8am and guess what was playing...Tiffany, I think we're alone now. Switched straight off. Must be a very small playlist for dross like this to be played so often...

At least they’ll soon be able to play that without a hint of irony for their listener!

Coincidentally I tuned in on the way to work heard usual overplayed tracks like Brown Eyed Girl and Don't You Forget About Me. That's it won't be tuning in anymore this week. At least I was too late for Tiffany.

It seems worse than Smooth these days for repeating tracks it's such a shame it used to be so much better. The no 1's at 9 are laughable.
I don't suppose it will get any better when it rebrands. The last RAJAR showed they are losing listeners I expect the next will be worse.

Interesting that in the application they state that Town is a small station seemingly for Ipswich only; no mention that the old TSA actually includes neighbouring towns such as Stowmarket, Felixstowe, Woodbridge etc.... Never realised that the former management buyout was almost 100% funded by a loan, later taken on by Celador, which they defaulted on so Celador got the stations by default. If I had been a former employee of the group I would be quite insulted by the comments on how poor the stations output allegedly was pre takeover, and how much better the output is now with better presenters etc. I find it amazing that with such an experienced board of directors and management the company can put out such poor radio. Yes there were some weaker presenters but in general the station is very poor now and the only thing in common with its previous incarnation is the name....

So without Celedor buying the station would the prevoius owener go bust?
